You Know That Feeling You Get When Your Laptop Explodes and All You're Left With Is Scorch Marks

Just as the title suggests, my laptop exploded (not in the Ka-BOOM kind of way) and left me without Internet and all the HUNDREDS of documents I had on it.

That includes five editorials for a class that I have to rewrite.

All the research I did for AP art.

All the pictures I ever found from any website.

All the music I ever uploaded.

And My Life.

After the malware sat back satisfied with it's delicious meal of scandals involving Justin Bieber's baby and entertainment via Memecenter, I called tech support in hopes of logically perfect way to kick the ugly thing off my computer and get back to my life and delete my facebook as it was the source of all my troubles.

If you didn't know, in November Facebook got hacked. Bad. And the hackers were giggling while they posted porn (yes, porn) all over the website, thus naming it "Porn"book. I wasn't aware of this. But when I logged on and my account told me that the password I had was compromised, I was quick to change my password to something completely unrelated. Unfortunately not quick enough. Within minutes my Internet was down, my security system disabled and I was robbed of my digital home.

Now, when I mentioned calling tech support, I was given a number of a generic company, not calling the company of my computer because, well, they ask for a receipt, which was long forgotten because our family tries to stay neat, but when we do we throw away papers we need. But anyway, tech support.

Now this tech support is probably the one we've all encountered: The outsourced Indian person, which has  really no clue but suppose that they could help us somehow. After twenty minutes of explaining what happened to the laptop, which did NOTHING, we started out on our over the phone adventure to screw up my laptop beyond repair. First we turned it back on. I had taken the battery out, hoping to salvage something on my computer unfortunately we had to try everything include open my files so the malware could get second helpings of my precious work. Then after about an hour of digging around the confines of my laptop, trying to open Internet Explorer (I prefer FireFox) and realizing that indeed my laptop was screwed.

Well, that was two hours wasted.

I decided that from that point on I was going to let the ugly little malware monster eat my files until it exploded.

I've yet to get that computer fixed, so I'm using my school computer to vent into this blog. But that's not all!

I'm going to put in some entertaining videos here, but do mind I'm showing you videos from my friends and family this time.

And that's what I've got for you today... but be warned I may back soon.

Information for my Flatclassroom project group members

A functional use of workflow software was the development of universal fire hoses across the board. Instead they made all the nozzles and hose the same, then companies started to compete instead over the quality of the hose, the pump, and the fire truck types. Workflow Software helps in the research process, eliminating large amounts of papers and documents by taking all information into one place; documents that need to be reviewed and corrected can be accessed through the large expanse of software shared between researchers.Reference - double click to edit XML and SOAP created the technical foundation for software program-to-software program interaction, which was the foundation for Web-enabled work flow. Once this technical foundation was in place, more and more people started writing work flow software programs for more and more different tasks. After the emergence of the two flatteners, people quickly wanted to do more than just browse and transmit email, instant messages, pictures, and music over the Internet. They also wanted to create, sell, and buy things, and they wanted to keep track of inventories, do someone else’s taxes, and read another’s X-rays, from any computer to any other computer, a world away, and seamlessly. New applications software was needed so that everyone could get the maximum from computers, while your office could technically in your home, in your car, in the airport, on the beach, or even on a mountaintop.


this is the second paragraph taken from our post, is there any information needed here?

So This isn't My First Blog

Well technically it's the first blog that I've done without assignments.

Yes I took a class for this.

But I think we should talk about funny things in life every once in a while. For example: why does my brother dispise the winky face so much? Or why does my kitten decide that my old stuffed animals need to be taken off the world? Poor little Bumblebear.

Well, lets talk about comical things from the internet. Youtube for example?

My boyfriend showed me this video and I appreciate him for that. I mean, who thinks about putting LED lights on sheep? Good stuff.

 Oh and make sure the sound is on for that video. :D


So I found out that I may be allergic to other states than Iowa the hard way. My face transformed into this twitchy sniffling mess when I went to visit a college. Then when we passed states lines again my face returned to its normal state.

So I'm goingto stay instate for college. Which my be a way to transition to my next topic: me.
 No I'm not trying to be narcissistic, I'm just trying to be more open.

I'm an art type person. I can't do math in my head, physics is far from fun and I could probably only pass a history test if it took drawing picture depicting the battle of Lexington and Concord.

But instead of staying on that lets look into some interests of mine. For one Anime and Manga. Yes, their different. I like going to anime conventions, mainly Anime Iowa, where I cosplay. Which brings this up:


Now that that's out of the way... Lets see... I have odd quirks, such as I cannot do my own hair, but I can style another person's. I don't really know what else.....

So there will probably be another post sometime. Maybe. Soon maybe
